[Elecraft] K3: switching on click

[Bill K9YEQ]

I have external speakers connected through the headphone jack and have zero
snap, crackle or Pop :-)   Just for grins, I moved the output to the line
out jack and did create the Pop on turn on.  Without the external setup, I
do get an internal speaker pop, but nothing objectionable.  With stereo
output to amplified stereo speakers when plugged into the external speakers
or the phones jack on the front panel,  I don't get any POP.  Therefore, to
remove the pop with the internal speaker, plug into the external speaker
jack or the front phone plug... I guess... ;-)

73,

Stephen, you make a valid point. I have external speakers connected on my
K3, and it produces a pronounced double click or pop upon power up. I would
appreciate a more or less silent power on sequence myself.
